Today, I have a little Unity creation for you. This is the Floral Fantastical stamp set which i colored with Copic Markers and used some of my Urban Prairie designer paper from Basic Grey (I simply ADORE that collection...)I'm so happy today because the sun is shining and at last, there is NO snow in my yard (I pray it stays that way...I'm so done with snow...)I do have some new Unity in the house, but I'm saving one for their GIANT Blog Hop on the 28th. If you haven't already signed up, what are you waiting for, head on over to the Unity Blog (or follow my blinkie on the top right corner) and come join us!I'm also working on a little Unity creation for an upcoming kit I'm designing for my LSS - I'm so excited my LSS is going to be carrying Unity! Hooray!!I first heard about Unity from my friend Jen Del Muro at CHA last winter. You could just feel the energy and passion at CHA that first year, you could just tell that they were going places! Its been amazing to watch Unity grow and become such a HUGE phenomenon! Can you say "hip, hop?"If you have no idea what I'm talking about, then perhaps you've missed Unity's Thursday blog "hip-hop" through the Design Team sharing new creations. Customers and Design Team members are always chatting in their forum on Thursdays - and there are always great deals and fantastic giveaways. Oh, and lots and lots of laughs too. They'll be starting around 10 am CST this morning. You'll want to start at the Unity Blog.Since I was treating myself to a little Unity Love, I thought I'd share by sending one of YOU a little Unity love too!! One winner, selected at random, will win both the Home and Stories and Feel the Joy stamps! I'll announce the winner on Friday!To enter this, the final giveaway of my Blogaversary Celebration simply post a comment on this thread by midnight on Thursday. I'd love to know what I can do for YOU - tutorials you'd like to see etc - I'm hearing yes you're interested in more tutorials, any direction on topics you're interested in??Also, I've been debating about adding one of those c-box features - the question and answer gadget thingy... do you have any questions I can help with?
Most of all, I just want to thank all of you that come to visit me. If you know me in real life, you know I'm a total chatterbox and this place is no exception. Sometimes I feel like I'm talking to myself, so its nice to hear from so many of you this week. Come on by and say hello now and again! Anyone up to listening to me babble for a third year?

Hip Hop!!!!!! That's where I'll be all day today! I can't wait to see what you bring us in your 3rd year blogging. I think the C-box is a great idea. And tutorials about projects are always helpful.
Have a wonderful sunny day!!!
I am soooo glad you hopped on the Unity train!!! They rock and so do you!! I love this card, amazing! Using your unique style to complement Unity stamps, wonderful!! Just keep doing what you do! Hope to see you at Hip Hop!
love your card! it is so spring-ey. i love your blog, i have you on my google reader, so i can see all of your posts. who doesn't love tutorials?! they are always so helpful.
just dropped by (via the blogoversary site and from Germany) to wish you a happy blogoversary :-) - even though I´m not into cards I must say your blog looks quite decent - regards !
lol...still chuckling about you being a chatterbox and talking to yourself! I think it would be a gret idea to have c-box! Your card today is beautiful! I haven't used any Unity Stamps before, but would LOVE to! Pop on over to my blog for blog candy too if you like!
Have a great day,
:)

Thanks!! I don't know how doable this is as a tutorial but one of the things I have the most trouble with is sizing!! When layering and using multiple pieces of paper, how do you know just what sizes to cut them to so it all looks proportional?? I hope that makes sense!!
What a darling card!
I use Copic markers and need all of the help I can get with how to use them.

I love this card. So pretty. I love tutorials. I love the little stationary sets you made ages ago. Maybe a tutorial on that some time!
Pretty card! I love Unity too!
LOL about talking to yourself! MANY times a day I wonder out loud if anyone is listening to me {my DH and kids... heck even the dog!}
Tutorials on 3D projects would be great and even though I might not have a question to ask with a c-box feature, I would surely stop and read what others might have to ask...
Happy Blogaversary once again and THANKS for the op to win... I XOXOX Unity!!!

Love this set, one of my favorites by Unity! I like seeing your creations every day! I've never utilized the c-box or maybe I've never seen it??
Adorable! Love the Urban Prarie dp! :D
Simply gorgeous!! BG Urban Prairie is one of my faves too! I don't have any Unity yet - key word being yet! I will read as long as you want to blog - please keep going! I love reading your chatter too!
Great card & blog. My 1st time here but certainly not the last. The Unity stamps are awesome & will have to try the. Thanks for your giveaway. Also, love tutorials.
Not sure what a c-box is but it sounds interesting! Everyone seems to have their own technique for coloring images with copics and this is an area that I could improve on so any tips would be helpful! Happy Blogaversary!
Great card!!Love tutorials!! TFS...Gina
Beautiful card, I love tutorials, like that i can learn a lot :).
I'm enjoying this week on your blog :)
Have a very nice day.

Oh I love tutorials. I would love to see how you use copics and what your favorite tools are. A trip around your studio. How you may use something that differs from the norm. I'd love to know more about layering.
Thanks for all the fun posts.
hmmm...I don't own any Unity Stamps but maybe I will. ;)
Great card btw.
What a pretty card! I don't know what to tell you to add, but I enjoy your blog so keep on!
I've enjoyed your blog for a long time. Your cards are just great!! Some tutorials on 3-D items would be wonderful. Thanks for the chance to win!
I don't really have any requests...I just love visiting your blog and seeing what you do for inspiration. Thanks for sharing!
Fabulous card!! Isn't Unity the greatest?? I need to get mine out again and show them so love. I love seeing your creations everyday, I find your cards very inspiring.
More tutorials is always a good thing. Thanks for a chance to win more great Unity stamps. My first set was their butterflies and I absolutely love them.
Appreciate the chance for some blog candy! Tutorials are wonderful no matter what the subject...always learn something from them. TFS
Congrats again on your anniversary!
I'd love to see lots more on how to colour with Copics. They're so daunting!
Tutorials on gift items or projects other than cards would be great!
Thanks!
Mitz
I'd love to see more clean and simple cards! They're such a challenge to make and always nice to see more inspiration out there.
Gotta love Unity! I became addicted a few months ago.
I will Hip Hop today! I love this card and look forward to another year of amazing creations. Tutorials about copics or any other projects are always good for me.
Have a great day!
I would love to win some Unity stamps! I would like to see tutorials on how you choose the dp and colored papers to go with your stamps. I can't get the combinations right!

Happy Blogiversary!!! Enjoy your blog so much. I would love to see project ideas. Things other than cards. With templates and tutorials. Thanks so much for sharing with us this past year! It's been great! Cathy
LOVE your gorgeous card and I miss you my chatterbox friend! You KNOW I love learning anything from you! :)
Love the C-box idea...as far as tutorials, I would love Copic tips, especially shading, I can't get it right. Love you blog! See you at the party tonight!
Tutorials, I always want to learn something new, or practice practice practice something I've seen & haven't mastered. Yeah! for seeing NO snow out the window, where I'm from that is an awesome site (the ground had a light dusting of the white stuff when I went to bed last night - it was gone by noon).
Keep on chatting. I love viewing your blog and get notification of updates. I don't have any unity yet. One of these days I will place an order. As far as what I want to see, just more of what you already do. Inspire me!
I don't own any Unity stamps...yet! Would love to change that! I like any tutorials. It's always fun to try new things. I think it's just nice to feel comfortable asking questions without feeling like you are the only one who doesn't know the answer!! Thanks for allowing us to do that. Keep your beautiful cards coming. I appreciate your blog.
Happy blogoversary!
Happy Blogaversary!! I love any tutorials, love learning new things!! The C-box is a great idea!! Thanks for the opportunity!!
Very pretty spring card ~ and I love that Basic Grey paper too. I don't have any specific requests for tutorials, anything you'd like to share would be great.
I'm quite new to paper crafting and love seeing tutorials on all types of things. If I had to pick, I would say boxes/bags to put goodies in. But I'm not picky any tutorial on paper crafting works for me. Thanks for the chance to win.

I am easy to please. Keep on making cards and I will keep visiting your blog.
Thank you,

Babble away dear lady - it's music to my ears! And your creations are candy for the eye.
Thanks for sharing your talent for yet another year. And yes tutorials are always a good thing. As are reviews about what tools you like or were disappointed by and why or why not. Tips and tricks of any kind for those of us fairly new to stamping is also appreciated.
Gotta say I'm fairly new to Unity but I have to agree they ROCK! See you at the hop! - Jean
Joanne - I missed your deadline for posting because you have your Feedblitz delivery schedule set to where it isn't delivered to your subscribers until the day AFTER you post. Even though I've missed out on the drawing I still wanted to tell you I think your card is beautiful.
